A videotape of Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden released on Saturday (NZT) is the Pashto-language version of a tape first released several months ago, said IntelCenter, a US-based terrorism monitoring firm.

The tape, titled "To Our People in Pakistan", was broadly released in Arabic and Urdu on July 12, IntelCenter said.

Excerpts had been aired by Al Jazeera network on June 3, it added.

Earlier on Saturday, IntelCenter had said al-Qaeda's as-Sahab Media had released a new video from bin Laden.
